2024 China Open Squash returns to Shanghai
The venue is built next to the Crescent Lagoon outdoor swimming pool at the Oriental Sports Center.
As part of the PSA World Tour, the China Open Squash is currently the highest-level professional squash event to be hosted on the Chinese mainland. Historically held annually in Shanghai from 2006 to 2019, the tournament was suspended in 2020 due to the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic.
"The aim of bringing the event back to Shanghai is to enrich our squash activities and make China thrive on squash," said Wang Yun, deputy director of the Multi-ball Games Administrative Center. "Chinese players can benefit from this opportunity to learn from top-level players in the world and compete for points to secure a spot at the 2028 Los Angeles Olympics."
"It will also boost public awareness of and participation in squash while nurturing the integrated growth of sports with business and other related industries," Wang added.
